The patch titled
ext2: avoid printk floods in the face of directory corruption
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ext2-avoid-printk-floods-in-the-face-of-directory-corruption.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: ext2: avoid printk floods in the face of directory corruption
From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>
A very large directory with many read failures (either due to storage
problems, or due to invalid size & blocks from corruption) will generate a
printk storm as the filesystem continues to try to read all the blocks.
This flood of messages can tie up the box until it is complete - which may
be a very long time, especially for very large corrupted values.
This is fixed by only reporting the corruption once each time we try to
read the directory.
